How to Access Pc-Check Through the ILOM CLI

  1. Attach a terminal device to the serial port on the server.

    Alternatively, you can use SSH to open a network CLI session to the ILOM SP IP address.

  2. Log in to the server SP and enter one of the following commands:
    • -> set /SP/diag state=manual

    • -> set /SP/diag state=enabled

    • -> set /SP/diag state=extended

    • -> set /SP/diag state=disabled

  3. Power-cycle the host and at the CLI prompt enter the following commands:

    -> stop /SYS

    -> start /SYS

    If you chose the Enabled option, basic diagnostics are run, which takes about 3 minutes to complete. If you chose the Extended option, detailed diagnostics are run, which takes about 30 minutes to complete. If you chose the Manual option, the system boots to the Pc-Check main menu. The following main menu options appear:

    • System Information Menu

    • Advanced Diagnostics Tests

    • Immediate Burn-in Testing

    • Deferred Burn-in Testing
